A Karnataka state cabinet meeting Thursday decided to revoke all cases against Naveen Soorinje, the Mangalore journalist arrested in the home stay attack case. He had been arrested for recording the July 28, 2012 home stay attack on video for his channel and broadcasting it. He was booked on the same charges as the rest of the accused in the attack. The high court had denied him bail. Journalists in Bangalore have been campaigning for his release.
